I have done this on a couple of projects, mostly with defined an xml
menu, rss feed, or misc xml file.

Works really well, though I have not tried it on anything greater than
tree control or a menu.

If you are going to try it, get an XSLT book first - it'll save you a
lot of head ache. And a good testing enviroment is really helpful too.
Its a pain to workout an XSLT sheet with CF. Google will bring a bunch
of options

(and more expensive) ones out there
